Summary
Tens of millions of people around the world are suffering linger, sometime debilitating symptoms from their past COVID infections. Symptoms range from POTs and hypocapnia to chronic fatigue and impaired lung function. As if that weren’t hard enough, since there is no historical precedents for this, most people are all alone in their healing journey. My guest on this week’s show nearly lost his life and has found his way back to health.
Listen and learn:
- The importance of lean muscle while again
- How human growth hormone peptides can accelerate post-operative and post-illness healing
- How inspiratory muscle strength training (IMST) can help you heal your respiratory system when perhaps exercise is not possible

| 0:00.0 | Depending on where you live in the world, somewhere between 20 and 70% of the population |
| 0:08.3 | was exposed to COVID infected by COVID in the past couple of years, and the question is, |
| 0:12.7 | what did that do? Did it do nothing? Was it just the flu? Did it screw up our lungs and our |
| 0:17.8 | immunity forever? Those are kind of the two extremes, but what we do know is that there are |
| 0:21.3 | millions of people who are suffering from long-haul symptoms, and some people believe that these |
| 0:26.8 | long-haul symptoms are completely fabricated, inventions, psychosomatic, but people who have |
| 0:32.5 | long-haul COVID would certainly not agree. They have things like pots, things like hypocapnea, |
| 0:38.3 | things like chronic fatigue, impaired heart functioning, all kinds of symptoms that pretty clearly |
| 0:44.0 | we can link back, we can trace back to their COVID infection, sometimes severe, but not necessarily |

| 0:53.2 | large, very prominent long-COVID centers opening up all around the country and all around the world, |
| 0:58.4 | but for most people, that still isn't really giving them a clear path forward. On this week's |
